Flaming Gorge NRA Dispersed

Several branching dirt roads that you can pick to camp at. Sites are not clearly marked, but you can pick a spot where you like and right near the lake. Saw some deer and two other campers

I don’t think I’ll ever get over the anxiety of heading to a dispersed campsite on the basis of the Dyrt alone. That air of mystery always puts a little know in my stomach. This spot quickly alleviated that the minute we pulled up to the area, with the clearly defying directions and rules on the sign, I knew that it’d be good. You can even see the water from a long distance, so you know what you’re getting. The spots are not defined at all and there are campers strewn all around the area, left from locals who stake a good spot for the weekend. That being said, there’s still plenty of room to find a spot along the beach. The water is crystal clear, there are spots of Greta sand, along with rocky patches of beach too. The paths and trails all around lend me to thinking that on the weekends the place is teeming with off road era, but being a Tuesday night it was quiet. HUGE drawback, and really was the only one, was the mosquitoes. Literally hundred upon hundreds swarmed our van around 7pm and didn’t let up all night. For some reason they weren’t landing on me, but I don’t know if that’s my condition or theirs. Saw antelope, pelicans, and plenty of other birds too.

Beautiful, although not much shade but cooler I had no problem on roads with a Promaster. This lake currently holds the WORLD record Lake Trout at 53 lbs 15 oz
